SEPERMIT.CONF(5)                          Linux-PAM Manual                          SEPERMIT.CONF(5)



NAME
       sepermit.conf - configuration file for the pam_sepermit module

DESCRIPTION
       The lines of the configuration file have the following syntax:

       <user>[:<option>:<option>...]

       The user can be specified in the following manner:

       •   a username

       •   a groupname, with @group syntax. This should not be confused with netgroups.

       •   a SELinux user name with %seuser syntax.

       The recognized options are:

       exclusive
           Only single login session will be allowed for the user and the user's processes will be
           killed on logout.

       ignore
           The module will never return PAM_SUCCESS status for the user. It will return PAM_IGNORE
           if SELinux is in the enforcing mode, and PAM_AUTH_ERR otherwise. It is useful if you want
           to support passwordless guest users and other confined users with passwords
           simultaneously.

       The lines which start with # character are comments and are ignored.

EXAMPLES
       These are some example lines which might be specified in /etc/security/sepermit.conf.

           %guest_u:exclusive
           %staff_u:ignore
           %user_u:ignore
